Smash a piece of history


IIT is hosting an eBay auction... the winner gets to break a window out of S.R. Crown Hall, one of the Ludwig Mies van der Rohe- designed National Historic Landmark building on IIT's campus. The May 17, 2005 “Smash Bash” is part of the kickoff for the historic renovation of the building and coincides with the launch of its 50th anniversary celebration. Seems like a good way to take out your frustration with modernism in general, or with IIT in particular. See the auction here.
